Darlo Uncovered

Who were they, the Chubby Hoofers? Lets have a sub-thread here - my own favourite in recent years is Scott Ainge but there must be others, wasn't Martin Burleagh a stocky kicker? I was thinking of the new signings we had that needed a bit of match time to get fit. Hughes springs to mind here, I can...

Nuts virtue signaling if you ask me

In regards to Taylor, he’s the most consistent keeper we’ve had at this level aside from Loanees who’ve then gone on to play at a much higher level. Saltmer, Elliott and Maddison all far worse so I’m happy with him as first choice. I disagree - to me Adam Bartlett was better. Bartlett was a superb ...

He reckons they are trying to sign Beck!!

I thought it was a good turn out from Darlo supporters yesterday. A nice little ground, and a warm welcome from the NA staff. To be fair NA played some good stuff yesterday, a cutting edge up front it could of been a different score line. Good luck to Atkinson and his team this season, I’m sure the...

Scunthorpe away is clueless scheduling imo Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I suspect Club or local police asked for it, it would likely have been our biggest crowd on a Saturday.

Sure. Of course they do, and sometimes people overachieve. AA did at Blyth. But, the path to every manager who dramatically overachieves is littered with many more who dramatically underachieve. If you are going to let a safe pair of hands go (which AA certainly is at this point) you better have a ...

Hi all, You may or may not have seen that our merge was voted through and the team is preparing for the season at Gigg Lane, we have also been given allowance to use the name Bury FC again. Why the FA gave us special dispensation is beyond me - I can only guess it was done in an attempt to put the ...

My understanding is that Craig is a totally committed fan like all of us and some of the comments are out of order. Seems like we were on the verge of signing Martin and he was probably told that, maybe jumped the gun a touch, and then something happened to change the outcome. Sadly for me as think...

He hasn't signed as yet. It's not that hard to get your head round. I don’t doubt that but the Echo needs to correct it’s previous error. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk What "previous error" all they reported was that we were hoping sign him nothing concrete at all? Stoddart wrote that it was a...

Why hasn’t the Echo clarified the situation?

Can’t believe we’re still talking about Cassidy on this board

Or is it? Gatesheed have signed two midfielders so probably one door closed for him. Whilst we know he has great skills, maybe his lack of playing time in the final months of the last season is counting against him. Any clubs really interested should have snapped him up by now. Hope he doesn’t end ...

Sounds like Purver was already planning to go when we offered him new contract at the turn of the year. If he didn't want to sign when we were top of the league I am not sure that the reasons for his decision were entirely in our control. I thought he was referring to Lambert Sent from my iPhone us...

…………. And still we wait! Talk about being taken for granted [emoji2359] I don’t feel I’m being taken for granted.I feel I’m supporting my club along with the vast majority of the 449 investors that don’t require a tummy tickle from the club.When there’s something to hear we will hear it. I have als...

By and large I have not been critical of the club’s communications, and have defended Ray from some of the,at times over the the top criticism from certain quarters, but I do agree with those who think we should have heard something from our manager. The last few interviews he gave were downbeat an...

Should have a very energy efficient new stadium then.

We know we conserve energy on the clock...

And then there’s the floodlights usage [emoji848]

I saw most of the game on BT Sport. Quite honestly those who stayed at home missed nowt. A very dull game with little goalmouth action. Also reminded me how ineffective Adam Campbell is. AC had a poor game but he wasn’t the only one to be fair. He’s a very important part of their set up and had a d...

What am I on about? I will tell you. I don’t think DJ would negotiate or recommend a proposal that he felt would jeopardise the future of the club. Of course the supporters would have the final vote. If there was a proposal on the table that DJ supported, then I for one would give it serious consid...

The more I see of Houchen and how he operates, the less confident I am that this stadium project is ever going to get off the ground [emoji54]
